Really enjoyed the location and atmosphere. The rooms were comfortable and cozy. It is often hard to get a room here on the weekends during the summer months. We have stayed both in the inn and cabins. Both rooms were clean and comfortable. We enjoyed hiking at the state park and being away from the big city for a weekend.

Our family of three stayed in one of the "Sleeping Cabins" which are located adjacent to the Inn and this particular unit had 2 doubles. They call it a Sleeping Room for a reason...it is very small...tube tv...3 drawers...rack to hang clothing...very tight bath with shower only...no counter...it appears some updates have been done but not enough...they've got a long way to go. The walls are extremely thin, we had to watch our voices as we could easily hear our neighbors. The beds were not comfortable...you could hear the springs with every move. HOWEVER...and that is a big HOWEVER...this is a fantastic park with soooooo much to offer...we hiked for two days and although we have visited this park on several occassions...we made new discoveries...it is breathtaking...we enjoyed our two days there immensely and we will go back. Next time we will try a room in the lodge or one of the larger, more private cabins they offer. If you choose to go to the pool, plan on freezing...we wondered why noone else was there...we found out very quickly...we called the front desk and asked if someone could turn up the temp...the response was that it "would take over an hour" to get someone to come down"...yeah...we left...so that hypothermia wouldn't set in. Aside from all of that...the on site restaurant has great comfort food and friendly service...The common area at the Inn is quite cozy and inviting...we enjoyed time as a family playing board games we brought along and sitting by the fireplace, drinking the complimentary coffee.

We had a room on the third floor with refigerator, sofa (also pulls out into bed) and a King sized bed. The room was clean, spacious, and enjoyable. the furniture was rustic with wood bark and perfectly fit the setting. The room is not like a five star hotel in the big city but it is comfortable, woodsy, and charming. You get a lot of room for the price. We stayed over Thanksgiving and the buffet for Thanksgiving was very good and well coordinated. If you plan to eat there for Thanksgiving call the restaurant a month or more in advance for reservations. Turkey Runn is a great place to spend Turkey Day. Our daughter and her fiance stayed in a room with two double beds and it was neat and nice but not as spacious, but it cost less.

I visit the Turkey Run Inn in the Turkey Run State Park at least once a year and have for many years now. I stay either in the Inn itself or in one of the inn cabins located a short distance from the inn. I enjoy Indiana's state park inns, but they are not for everyone. The traveler needs to realize what they are in order to avoid disappointment. Since they are located within state parks, there is an entry fee (paid once) during the spring/summer/fall season. These inns are not located on main highways. Most are historic buildings with interesting histories and each one is unique. They are not sterile and modern, but are clean and comfortable. There are TV's in all rooms, including the cabin rooms. Service on my verizon cellphone is spotty, but improves each year. There is wireless internet service in the Inn, but it does not reach to the cabins. There is an indoor pool in the inn, open all year, as well as a pool in the park open during the summer months. Turkey Run State park is located on Sugar Creek and has a nature center and interesting trails. There is a covered bridge over the creek within the park, a pedestrian suspension bridge over the creek leading to some of the trails, and canoe rentals nearby for use on the creek. Bald eagles can at times be seen in the park. I have enjoyed the food in the inn dining room.
